Hello there. Welcome to my world of Random Thoughts. In this world I’ll be posting stuff about anime and manga. Not to mention various other topics. I may post the occasional music video every now and than. And from time to time, I’ll just talk about my life in general. But first, here are a few things about me.

I was born an only child, for one thing. Originally I was planning to go into art professionally, but recently I’ve been more inclined towards writing. I still do the occasional wallpaper every now and then though, and I also still draw a little. But much of my energy these days goes into writing fan fiction. I’ve also recently become interested in archive and library work, which is something I’ve discovered I’m good at. Finally, like most people on the Internet, I like cats.

In addition to being a fairly good wallpaper artist, I'm also a fan fiction writer who's written quite a few stories on FanFiction.Net. To check those stories out, CLICK HERE

That’s pretty much all you need to know about me. I'm not sure how often I'll post something here, but I'll try to as often as I can. In the meantime, I hope you all enjoy visiting.

Coming Soon

Sometime in the next few days (hopefully before next weekend) I will be making a wallpaper set to this song.

It's going to be Yu-Gi-Oh! GX wallpaper, so stay tuned.

URGENT!!

I just tried to log into Fan Fiction.Net and the little security code picture I'm supposed to type only came up as a box with a little question mark. So I couldn't log in. I tried hitting refresh several times, I tried two different browsers, and I even tried using my second computer (which I don't think I should try because I think it knocks out my internet connection). Nothing worked (I guess I could keep trying refresh, but I don't think it'd get me anywhere). So I really would like to know if anyone here on TheO who has a Fan Fiction.Net account is having the same problem.

It was actually working fine when I logged in earlier today, so it's most likely another glitch. But I would like to know all the same, because then it might mean I would need a new computer (both my computers are a little old). So anyone with a Fan Fiction.Net account, please let me know. And I apologize if I'm making too big a deal out of this.

GX Song Attack

Just 'cause I feel like it, here's the fourth opening theme to Yu-Gi-Oh! GX in its entirety.

Both Disgusting and Dangerous

So tonight I had the Food Network on, and they had one one of their game show type programs where the chiefs had to make a dish with certain ingredients. One of the ingredients they had to use in this episode was goat brains....

I did not even know you could use that for food. Heck, I didn't even know that anyone would WANT to use that for food. I mean that's just gross. Anyway, my dad was in the room at the time, and he was just as grossed out as I was. But he pointed something out to me that I did not know. Eating brain matter of any kind isn't just gross, it's dangerous. You see mad cow disease comes from cattle eating feed that has the brain matter of other cattle. And there is no cure for mad cow.

Now it could be that I don't know all the facts, and if anyone does feel free to correct me. But it now seems to me that using that sort of ingredient is a major health hazard. I don't know what the producers of that show were thinking. Of course even if it isn't as big a hazard as i think it is, I still wouldn't eat anything made with any sort of brain. I mean that's just nasty. Just wanted to get that off my chest.

Kokoro

Apparently this song was made into a stage play in Japan. And I just read on ANN that now they're going to base a book on it. It's interesting how one song could spawn all that, but then I guess that it how Black Rock Shooter began (at least I think it is).
